I have this at the top of the detail page. <?php session_cache_limiter('none'); session_start(); ob_start(); include "vsadmin/db_conn_open.php"; include "vsadmin/inc/languagefile.php"; include "vsadmin/includes.php"; include "vsadmin/inc/incfunctions.php"; include "vsadmin/inc/metainfo.php";?> <!doctype html><html> ... and this before the closing head tag. <meta <meta property="og:type" content="product" /> <meta property="og:title" content="<?php print $productname ?>"> <meta property="og:description" content="<?php print $productdescription; ?>" /> <?php print $metaogimage; ?> I'm using Chrome browser ( which works to show the share buttons.) but I get either nothing or the banner. I can't seem to get the product image, even though I'm emptying the cache and forcing a refresh. Any suggestions? Edited by - LadyM on 09/08/2021 09:10:40

Vince, could you please consider a solution for this ? Regards, Gary

But I've made the changes now so that the OG Image tag is created even if the social media option is not displayed in the detail page. I've added the change to the v7.4 updater but if you're on v7.3 you can use the v7.4 vsadmin/inc/metainfo.php just fine.
